The College celebrated national RUOK day on Thursday 13 September. According to the organisation's website, its mission is to inspire and empower everyone to meaningfully connect with people around them and support anyone struggling with life.
The main goals the organisation sets out to achieve are:
- Boost our confidence to meaningfully connect and ask about life's ups and downs
- Nurture our sense of responsibility to regularly connect and support others
- Strengthen our sense of belonging because we know people are there for us
- Be relevant, strong and dynamic
- Students were informed of the four steps of asking RUOK.
The students enjoyed some cake while listening to music and gathering on picnic blankets on the Quad during the lunch break.
